INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
The AV1 requires special care during installation to ensure optimal
performance. Pay particular attention to instructions below and to
other precautions that appear throughout this user guide.
DO install the AV1 on a solid, flat, level surface such as a table or
shelf. The AV1 can also be installed in a standard 19-inch equip-
ment rack using an optional rack-mount kit available from an
authorized JBL dealer.
DO select a dry, well-ventilated location out of direct sunlight.
DO NOT expose the AV1 to high temperatures, humidity, steam,
smoke, dampness or excessive dust. Avoid installing the AV1 near
radiators and other heat-producing appliances.
DO NOT install the AV1 near unshielded TV or FM antennas, cable
TV decoders, or other RF-emitting devices that might cause inter-
ference.
DO NOT place the AV1 on a thick rug or carpet, or cover the AV1
with a cloth, as this might prevent proper cooling.
DO NOT place the AV1 on a windowsill or any location exposed to
direct sunlight.
DO NOT obstruct the front-panel IR receiver window. The remote
control must be in line of sight with the IR receiver for proper oper-
ation. See “Operation Considerations” on page 2-6 for more infor-
mation.
DO NOT install the AV1 on a surface that is unstable or unable to
support all four feet, unless it is installed in an equipment rack.
DO NOT stack the AV1 directly above heat-producing equipment
such as a power amplifier.
CAUTION!
Before moving the AV1, power the unit off using the rear-
panel power switch and unplug the power cord from the
wall outlet.
